So I used to play this game a lot up till about a year ago when RL stuff came up. Anyhow thought I would give it a try after being given a week of sub status.
Gota say I really did not like the new skill system. very little variety, no real hybrid or ability to customize skill setups. Frankly it made the skill system boring.
Non ranked PVP was painful. combining high level characters with low lvl chars is just a bad idea. sure you can boost stats, but that does not make up for lack of class skills due to lvl.
new FPs seem like rehashes of the old ones. Granted I did not play the newest expansion, I was going to purchase it, but after the leveling experience (took a guardian to lvl 55) it just did not seem worth investing more in the game.
Honestly I was pretty sad, used to love knocking around in pvp while leveling and mixing things up with the skill system. Now the game just feels overly simplified.
